  • Trump has not been seen in public for several days . . .

  • My guess is that Stephen Miller knows that Vance can't hold three pieces of paper together and will try to ramp up martial law to retain power. Which they don't have the manpower to do without the actual military who likely would not follow such orders. The national guard would likely start doing malicious compliance at best and ICE flat out doesn't have enough people to control blocks of a city let alone the country. I can't even imagine where things would go from there.

  • You are correct, Graphene only runs on Pixel phones. I know there's a few open mobile OS options out there but I've not spent any time researching them. There is a very good chance if you absolutely need an identification, then you can't get away from Android. Hopefully someone else sees your comment and has an answer.

  • I wouldn't self host email. But I would pay for a host and get away from Gmail. Wait until Black Friday and get free/cheap services from a bunch of places. Maybe even proton if you're okay with them. Also, using your own domain for email is pretty cool (to me).

  • You've got some good suggestions, I think most of the suggestions I can think of. Nextcloud is of course the big one but after using it for quite a while, I think it's important to break down your needs. If you need file sharing/syncing only, there are better options that are easier and faster. If you only need chat/voice, rocket chat is really lightweight and easy. If you need file sharing, online office suite, chat, etc. Then Nextcloud is the right option. Just keep in mind, even if you think you need some of those things, will anyone but you ever actually use them? No, they won't, because they don't appreciate how cool it is to self host and how much effort you put into it.

  • I don't know myself, but Graphene OS (on Google Pixel phones) has a pretty impressive sandbox layer for the play store and the apps it installs. It might be worth looking into if you're not aware of it currently. (But if you're aware of the Fairphone, I'm guessing you probably know about Graphene).

  • I will help hand hold anyone who wants to build servers or services (to the best of my ability) to replace Google services with their own.

  • YSK that if US housing and population projections hold, the Electoral College map will change after the 2030 census.

    Jump

  • You're right, we've got several states, mostly Republican leaning, that are winner take all. But these extra blue seats could potentially allow for an entire state swing in some states as yaroto98 pointed out. If it doesn't do that, what it will do is piss enough people off because they're not represented to get the groundswell needed to force changes.

  • Something missing from the displayed data, not sure if the article goes into it (not going through NYT paywall bullshit to find out) but Idaho, Utah and Texas will very likely gain a blue voting electoral college vote. If, after this Trump bullshit concludes (providing it concludes), we don't have a major overhaul of how elections work including a change to first past the post, we kind of deserve fascism or all out civil war.

  • They could have potentially stayed away longer but they couldn't stay away forever. At some point, this all has to come to a head. And this is not on them. They didn't create this legislation and are not the ones voting for it.

    The anger should lie squarely on the Republican fucks who are making this happen without the will of the voters in many cases.

  • If they pull that shit in an actual state, not a district, they can be charged with an unpardonable state crime. And I'm often a naysayer against hope, but they do not have nearly enough people to demand obedience.

  • It's edited in that I cropped out a chunk of the middle making it a square. Not in any way that changes the meaning or purpose of the original. Here is the product link.

    Edit: I'm guessing it was just non-native English speakers along with some confusion in the marketing team that led to this. But they accidentally a reality.

  • A lot of the people I know who want to jump straight into smashing shit have neither the desire or ability to help rebuild anything. They want the social media attention of being a smasher but would quickly sell out all of their positions if they had to do the silent work in the background to improve things.
